: The event has ended and the women engage in small talk to decide on the menu , The Alphas summit is a high profile gathering so I'm guessing there'll be a lot to talk about . But soon , they'll prepare to say their goodbyes . I hope . 56 vouchers Because Shirley is officiating , we'll likely be the last to leave so I don't bother hoping on getting back to the lake house early . I'm itching to call Liam , but that'll have to wait till later . Rather than join in the small talk , I've found a separate place to occupy myself with my thoughts . The Lunas have been nothing short of polite and welcoming . But even that is the proof of the mask they all wear . Everyone that's anyone , knows Laila Blackwood , Cameron's banished wife returned as Kael Blackwood's wife , A crazy case of wife - swap , if the media was allowed to run with the news . But Blackwood PR team and Kael's have been actively suppressing any ugly articles from making print . That doesn't mean it's not known , or being passed along by word of mouth . More than a few people witnessed the spectacle of my arrival at the gala . Yet they're all acting like they have absolutely no clue . I can see how much it gets on Sarah's nerves , she was probably counting on the gossipy Lunas picking me apart for being immoral . I'm guessing they would have if it wasn't for the fact that half , if not all their husbands are hoping to win Kael's investment now that they know he owns Mystic Inc. It accounts for why they've been especially nice and particularly attentive to me all afternoon . And that makes it difficult , if not impossible to tell who's genuine and who isn't . I don't mind it . I also do what I need to do to get ahead . That's what friendships really mean in the circles of the rich and influential . I lean against the railing , watching the staff down in the lobby go about their duties . They're like a well - oiled machine . It makes one wonder who owns this catering establishment . The style is elegant and tasteful . The ambience is just right and the staff are minimal but efficient in carrying out their tasks . Shirley booked the entire establishment for the day so I'm not certain what happens here on a normal day . It looks like just a cozy , ancient styled home . I'm drawn out of my thoughts as a presence comes up behind me . I don't need to turn to know who it is . 18:50 Mon , Oct 13 Chapter 46 : 294 55 vouchers Sarah . She's the only one here who hates me enough to glare a hole right through the back of my head . " So , Kael's your way back into the Blackwood home ? " Her voice is low , but biting . The real side of her she never shows to anyone . A side of her I only got to see a year after letting her into my home and into my husband's bed . Once , I'd been misled by her innocent and sweet facade . But I know better now . I know all the ways she subtly invalidated me to Cameron , while making herself into the saint . It happened in little bursts , so little that I passed it off as nothing . Until I was walking out of Cameron's estate in the rain , with Sarah grinning over his shoulder at me . When I don't respond , she continues . " Don't you think he's a bit ... " She trails off , " Too much for you ? " The jab at Kael doesn't sit well with me and I pass her a blank stare . " You mean my husband ? " I ask , like I have no clue what she's hinting at . She scoffs beneath her breath , her eyes flashing with rage . " He's a murderer . " She hisses in a low whisper . " Is it that you don't know ? " She asks , " Or you're just so desperate for the Blackwood name that you don't care how low you stoop ? " " Speaking of stooping low , " I reply , " Does Cameron know you and Josh used to be an item ? " Her eyes go wide . She probably thought no one knew about that . " Did you do a background check on me ?! " She hisses . She inches closer to the banister , and I sense her intentions even before she makes the move . But I don't stop it , letting it play out . " I don't think a background check is needed for that ." I reply honestly . " Someone always knows something . And arguing with your ex in my backyard while sleeping with my husband doesn't really go unnoticed . " Rage flashes through her eyes . Her hand goes up and she strikes me right across the face . " You bitch ! " The sting spreads across my cheek and rage burns through my veins , but I don't get to dwell on it . Because one moment she's standing next to me and the next , she slips , and lets out a scream as she falls backwards , her hands thrown out in a manner that makes it seem like I pushed her . Knowing Sarah's methods , I move faster . My hand darts out to grab hers and I pull her right back , twisting us around so I'm the one falling off the banister . She stares at me with wide eyes , her hands still outstretched incriminatingly . Air rushes rapidly around me , as gravity takes hold of my body , sending me toppling to the ground floor at blinding speed . I can hear the screams echoing all around me , and the sound of heels clattering against the marble floor . 18:50 Mon , Oct 13 Chapter 46 55 vouchers But I'm not worried . If Sarah intended to fall off from here , she's probably already made sure it's a fall she'll survive . Cameras flash all around and my eyes go shut just as I make impact . The pain is instant , my muscles spasm and black spots dance across my vision . " Did you push her ?! " Someone shouts somewhere around me . The last thing I see is the extremely satisfying look of horror in Sarah's eyes . AD
